Summary
It had never been a question, if Gaius was willing to give his life for the young man he considered the son he never had. That was a question he had already answered back, when Merlin had bargained his life for Arthur's and his mother had come to them, her life fading with her every breath.
The question had only been, if the gods would grant it; if there was a way to do now, what Merlin had averted then.
Gaius looked back down at the book in front of him.
It truly was possible.
All he had to do was wait for midnight and it would all be over. The world in balance once more and Merlin safe.While Merlin, Arthur and the Round Table knights rides for the Isle of the Blessed to end the terrors of the dorocha raging through their world with their ghostly, ice cold touch and their screams of the unforgiving dead, Gaius, searches through his collection of books of magic, unwilling to accept that Merlin would leave this world, giving himself to the tear between this world and the next, in Arthur’s stead.
When the time comes to it, Gaius willingly gives his name and his breath to the Cailleach and the tear to save him.-

Summary
The magic ban has been lifted, the war has come to an end, and Camelot appears to be on the cusp of its prophesied Golden Age. There are rumors, however, that Morgana is still plotting against Camelot.
Arthur doesn’t want to believe them. He's noticed that Morgana keeps to herself and that she's hardly ever in Camelot except to attend council meetings and pick up magic supplies. But surely there's another explanation?

Bookmark Notes:
Post season 5: Morgana rebuilding Camelot with Arthur in hand. Amazing in character redeemed Morgana if the show didn't turn her into a villain so violently in season 5. Morgana gives a great speech that is completely in character with the politically passionate Morgana of s1 and s2.
Him missing morgana as his sister, his family more than anything else and it being the real reason he's paying that much attention to her throughout the entire day. How he wants to make sure she's content and could be happy in the future and how at the end he comes to accept the fact that that happiness lies elsewhere and not by his side.
